Ad-hoc committees for both the city and ECCFPD in the past few months have been considering sites and gathering ideas for the eventual construction of new fire stations to serve the growing communities if revenue becomes available.
On Tuesday, the City Council unanimously approved its committee’s recommendation to begin seeking proposals for architectural services, so it can identify design and costs for construction of a district fire station. If the ECCFPD board, which meets Wednesday night, also approves the proposal, the city will then have to amend the general plan to change the land use designation at the site.
